Bill > SB301A

This bill expands the definition of workers eligible for prevailing wage requirements in public works projects. Currently, workers are considered employed on a public work if they are working at the site and necessary for the contract's execution. The bill now includes workers who deliver or remove specific construction materials (defined as aggregate, asphalt, and concrete) to or from the public work site, making them eligible for prevailing wage protections. To support the implementation of this change, the bill appropriates $144,576 to the Office of the Labor Commissioner for personnel, operating, travel, and information services related to compliance and enforcement. The appropriated funds have a specific timeline, with any unused money reverting to the State General Fund by September 19, 2025. The bill also requires the Labor Commissioner to update regulations to reflect these changes, and any existing conflicting regulations will be void. The provisions of the bill will become effective at different stages, with the appropriation section taking effect on July 1, 2024, and the main provisions becoming effective on July 1, 2025.
